The PSOE will knock down in Congress the amendments on rents that Podemos presented to the Budgets

MADRID, 3 Nov. (EUROPA PRESS) -

The Minister of Finance, María Jesús Montero, has confirmed this Thursday that the PSOE will stop the amendments proposed by United We Can, ERC and Bildu to the Budgets for 2023 that seek to regulate rents and prohibit evictions without a housing alternative and has assured that it will vote in against its processing following the criteria set by the legal services of the Chamber.

This is how the minister has responded, from the corridors of Congress, to the accusation launched by the minority partner of the Government, who has charged against the PSOE for trying to knock down these amendments with the support of the PP.

The 'purple' formation has criticized that this decision has been adopted "behind closed doors and without Parliament expressing itself democratically", but Montero has denied the majority. The analysis of these amendments and the report of the lawyers on them has taken place in the meeting that the Bureau of the Budget Committee has held early this Thursday.

The PSOE and the PP have supported the criteria of the legal services, which maintain that the content of the amendments is unrelated to budgetary matters. Socialists and 'popular' have a majority in the Bureau of the Budget Commission, where they have two representatives each, while the Presidency is occupied by the purple deputy Pilar Garrido.

However, as parliamentary sources have informed Europa Press, the final decision on the admission or not of the amendments will be taken at a new meeting of the commission's table, set for next Tuesday.

In this context, the Minister of Finance has confirmed that the PSOE will vote against its processing based on the "professional criteria" of the lawyers of Congress. "How is it logical the lawyer has raised the inadmissibility because they are not in line with the processing of a Budget project and it does not seem logical to deviate from that criterion", Montero has settled.
